Ogden WhitneyHerbie#9 Story Page 1
Original Art (ACG, 1965). Easily one of the most odd-ball of
the odd-ball comics, Herbie stories were as entertaining as
they were wacky with their own off-beat charm and style. Ogden
Whitney's wonderful artwork could take the wildest of stories and
make it seem perfectly sensible... in Herbie Popnecker's world, at
least. His battle cry of "You want I should bop you with this
here lollipop?" is unforgettable in its strangeness. Created by
writer Richard Hughes (as Shane O'Shea) and Ogden Whitney, they
also produced this story "Only Robin Hood Can Help you, Herbie!" in
which the "little fat nothing" is a stand-in for Friar Tuck to get
Robin Hood's bow. The page was crafted in ink over graphite on
Bristol board with an image area of 12" x 18". With only slight
patina and handling wear, this title page, with its half-splash
page panel, is in otherwise, Excellent condition. So "Make Way for
the Fat Fury" in your collection and bid on this crazy page!
